Up here in Canada, we can drive at 14, eh? :-D but I prefer to bike since you can get closer to the railway!
But to the point, 16..

Well, I am not allowed to drive until I am 18, which may be good, and bad. It will be good because all of the HKS, American Racing and other performance parts companies will have a lot more of a selection of tuner parts. Also Recaro seats will have a wider selection, as well as the companies such as Euro will have many more bumpers, grilles, and side skirts to make the exterior look even better. How much will all this cost? HKS turbo x 2, Euro taillights, Euro bumpers, NOS system.............................

always loved it when i had my z28 racing those kids in their fart can pipe cars. they thought their*** didn't stink, but after the dust settled they knew where their place was. lol waayyy behind me.

Ohhh that is just my starter car. I plan to sell it after I am finished with it, and then buy a nice Mercedes E55 AMG Sedan, and tune it a little, and then beat the kids at their own game. On the outside I would only put new rims on it and tint the windows, of course the car will be black, the spokes will be black, as well as the window tinting. Maybe a Z06, that is one awesome car. Always been a fan of 'Vettes, especially a '65 Stingray, convertible, 4 speed, Red, and a white interior. Wait, the motor would have to be a 427!!!!! Can you say loud???
I might hang onto it though.

I just turned 54 last month. I rode the San Joaquin and Coast Daylights when they were still painted red and orange,and before the automat cars replaced diners.I also remember the Pacific Electric Red Cars in Long Beach. I guess that makes me an old [censored].

Ride Amtrak. Cats Rule, Dogs Drool.

How old I am depends on whom I'm with. Some people make me feel young again. A Forum Friend calls me a Mature Guy. My granddaughter would probably agree.

But I haven't retired yet! Four years to go (now go figure!).

I'm 12-- NO, 60! Wait... Or maybe my dad's 12. THAT'S RIGHT! My dad's 12 years old and I'm 13. (No... that doesn't make a lick o' sense) Give me a second. Okay, when my mom was born I was waiting tables at Farrell's. My dad was pregnant. I helped him with his breathing excercizes. NO! I've gotta start over. Now the number of tortilla chips in an average 16oz. bag divided by my sister's nose hair... Is that right? Are any of you good with math? SOMEBODY THROW ME A BONE HERE! .......49.
